Balto Sequels

I think that Balto 1 was the best. 2 was OK. But 3 sucked. I think Lionking sequels are better.

The Balto sequels were cool but I think The Lion King II was much better. It had nicer songs, characters and animation. The third LK film I felt was just a pointless rehash of the original.

Agreed. I despised B3, yet I liked 1 and 2 almost the same (the first had better characters and animation, but I found the plot to be too predictable. At least in B2 we had the twist of Aleu leaving with the wolves).

And I must have something against the third movie in trilogies, because I didn't much like Lion King 1.5 (I consider it the third movie). It was clever and funny, but it took a lot of the serious atmosphere away from the first movie, which was actually quite a dark film (minus the Timon and Pumbaa scenes). I didn't mind the 2nd movie, but I didn't like the fact that it was yet another romance movie (that's part of why I liked WQ, Aleu didn't have a love interest or anything crappy like that. We dun' need guys anyway xD). And also it was too predictable.

Heh, I personally hated the "smooth" animation in WoC and the 3D backgrounds (though I didn't mind them in WQ... maybe because they weren't in every. single. scene). And I couldn't stand the fact that the characters were singing - I found Jenna's song to be just as bad as Stella's. However, I liked the music in WQ (with the exception of Somebody Needs You, though I found it tolerable) and didn't mind the "choppy" animation. Plus the characters weren't so much "singing" as speaking to music mostly (I even liked Muru's song, which did involve singing) and the music actually had meaning to it. Yay.
To conclude this novel, nearly all of the characters in WoC were the same (I liked Mel and Dipsy because they were unique) - flat and boring. In WQ they were different (for the most part) and therefore more interesting.

Maybe I'm just weird, LOL.

Oh, and I'm aware I could have edited my first post... I'll do so if it's bothering anyone.

I loved Balto3, not so fond of Balto2. Kodi is my favorite balto character.

WQ sucks. I like Alue but the plot is... well, overused. and tha animation's bad. the songs are okay.

WOC has better animation. the plot is nice. I love Kodi. but Stella ruined it. the songs ruined it. overall I don't really like the film.

need I say more? I've been saying the same thing again and again for several times.

I really love TLK2. it rocks! but I'd say that TLK3 shouldn't exist! I mean, thought the animation's good. but the story is pointless.

I like them but in my personal oppinion the TLK sequals were better by a long shot. :alien:

This is like compairing pizza toppings, the Balto sequels being like anchovies or pineapple and the LK sequels being like hamburger or pepperoni. All edible, but some not tasty. :lol:

Lion King sequels are much better the Balto sequels, hands down (Though I liked Balto 3 ok).

You could have put more detail in, and all you have to say is 'they suck'? Why do they suck exactly?

Anyways, here are my opinions :

Balto 11 : Wolf Quest

Ehh.. not too bad. They could have focused on the animation a bit more, and had more of a plotline. Aleu going on an adventure and becoming the leader of a wolf pack is nice, but inbetween it. Also, they could have made Aleu's character better..

Balto 111 : Wings of Change

As said before, they could have used better animation. The plotline is pretty good, but honestly --- I think they should have went into more detail, and they shouldn't have gave Stella such a big role. I also think the mentioning of Kodi's littermates, even just a little, would have been cool.

And is it just me, or does the sudden singing annoy you too? >.>

Yes I'll tell you what I personally think.Balto 2 sucked,because Aleu's one stupid charector,Jenna and Balto's pups ALL loook the same.[all but Aleu.]And yes,the animation stunk too.The voices were horrible.Listen to Jenna on Balto1 and then on Balto2.She sounds retarded.Balto3 was WAY to offtopic.Balto flies in a plane,Kodi delivers mail,[and Kodi is a horriblly developed charector]And I don't even want to get started with Stella.[STELLA'S GAY!]And let's face it.Muk and Luk totally copied Timon and Pumbaa.Now that I think of it,Balto2 practicly copied lionking2.I thought lionking 3 was alright.Though it was a bit strange.And YES.Balto seems like a movie that shouldn't have any singing at all!
Those are my personal feelings.

Singing? It has SINGING?! What the mess!!!!!!!!

No way am I watching this now <.< ....

LOL, I'll take pineapple pizza over any of the others, any day. :lol:

Anyhow, I concur--TLK sequels>Balto sequels. I didn't think either of the latter sucked, precisely, but I was generally unimpressed, whereas TLK2 is excellent...and TLK11/2 wasn't 1/2 bad. No pun intended. Okay, I lie.
